With the characteristic compelling photographs that accompany his work, E. M. Newman here presents his unique outlook on Egypt and the Holy Land. Written with the competence of a professional travel writer Newman takes the reader through his arrival in Egypt by ship and on a virtual tour of the noted wonders of that land. His impressions of Cairo, the Islamic influence and markers in the land, and journey up the Nile to the great temples of Luxor bring to light the structures and peoples of this fabled civilization. The account continues on up the Nile to Assaun and through the land that was to become Israel and Palestine as far as the Sea of Galilee. A journey into the vast Arabian Desert and the living stone monuments of Petra in what is now Jordan are recorded. Traveling north again, Newman visited Damascus and Lebanon before heading south to Jaffa and back into the desert at Sinai. Finishing up with the accounts of his main New Testament sites, Nazareth, the Jordan River, Bethlehem, and Jerusalem, this travelogue contains a wealth of impressions and memories. Illustrated with over 300 photographs, this volume provides a visual as well as descriptive tour to these ancient lands.
Edward Manuel Newman (1870-1953) was an American travel writer, lecturer, and photographer. He wrote several highly regarded accounts of his international travels.
